Troubled pop star Ke$ha has reportedly found herself in fresh personal pain after it was claimed she is undergoing treatment for alcohol abuse as well as an eating disorder.

The Timber star, 26, has become well-known for her partying and alcohol-referencing tunes, but now it is said her team have become ‘concerned’ for her welfare.

‘Those closest to her had become increasingly worried about her drinking. It’s been the stuff of legend in the past and she’s never hidden the fact that she loves to drink,’ a source has told gossip website Radar.

‘Now, though, part of her bid to get healthy is to get completely healthy — and that will involve looking at her abuse of alcohol. Some of her advisers had raised this in the past,’ the source added.

The singer entered a rehabilitation facility last week to seek help for an eating disorder, telling her fans she needs to ‘learn to love myself again. Exactly as I am’.

She is said to be currently undergoing a 30-day treatment program to tackle her personal issues.

A spokesperson for the star has so far been unavailable for comment on the latest developments.
